How to sort a column to read off of 2 other columns

[kylpr]

If I have column H needing to read off of column D but I need the word in column C to fill in column H what would be a formula for that? Below I did my best to show a sample, Keep in mind it can go off of COLOR or WORD or both on column D. Each one of the 7 words has its own color filled cell, so repeated words will have same colored cells. Thank you.


C D H
1 Sand 1
2 Metal 2
3 Dirt 3
4 Rock 4
5 Fire 5
6 Water 6
7 Oil 7
8 Sand 8
9 Metal 9
10 Dirt 10
